Italian AFA agent Pierpaolo Triulzi, from the internacional agency Futbol & Transferencias, visited us at the offices in Buenos Aires and gave us an interview about the present and future of MyBestPlay.  Read the whole article on our blog...

Does this service help you?
- Yes, very much.  It’s an innovative service for those who want to have an opportunity in soccer.  I know there are many sports, but as far as I’m concerned, it’s very helpful to those who play soccer and don’t have another opportunity to promote themselves.

Have you received any messages from players who want you to be their agent?
-Yes.  I can see the messages they send in my private area.  They’re almost 30 contacts a day, generally from players who don’t have an agent and want me to find them some international club.  There are people from all around the world; last night I got two messages from Nigerian players who were looking for a serious and dedicated agent.

Someone interesting?
-Yes, six South Americans who had a career on second and first division teams in their countries.  In Italy, South American players are esteemed, especially if they are tall and have long hair (he laughes).  They are the kind of players people admire when they go to the stadiums.

Do you think there should be someone like “Messi” on the website?
- Why not?  It’s possible, considering the number of sportsmen on this database.  I’ve also seen there are first level players who play in great European teams.   If this webpage keeps on growing as it is now, it’s almost sure that there’ll be more than one “Messi”.

What are the things a player should know before he signs a contract with an agent?
- He needs to check whether he is a certified agent, either by FIFA or by another local institution.  That way he’ll have more possibilities to proceed with the transfer without any legal inconvenience, because if a FIFA agent faces any trouble with a contract, the federation that regulates transfers solves the problem very fast.   However, if the agent doesn’t have a FIFA certification, it may probably take much more time to solve the problem, maybe years.

Can you compete with big management world agencies?
- It’s not really a competition, because they have another treatment towards the player (since they have many players, they can hardly devote some time to them, to solve their problems, either personal or related to sports).  In my case, I have three first level players and that’s enough for me to give them all the attention and solve their problems as much as possible.

Finally, do you see any future here?
- Yes, I think it’s a very good idea and if you keep on improving, it’ll be even more popular.
